My congratulations to the Alexandria team, and my congratulations also
to the two other teams who have presented strong and convincing bids
as well.
I especially appreciate that with the 4th Wikimania, we have covered 4
different continents. Now, I'm waiting for South America and Australia
for 2009/2010 (and my personal thanks would go to the team that
organises Wikimania Antarctica 2011).
[Yes, I know, geographical diversity is not *everything*, but if we
have strong bids from a continent that has not yet been represented, I
will always favour them]
Regards,
Michael
